Happy Thanksgiving (a day late).
Someday I’d like to have a #1 bestseller for failing to become the vice-president, quitting as governor, and not aborting a child.
The Non-Commissioned Officers - Flour
From the soundtrack to Make-Out With Violence, a coming-of-age zombie indie film, that, despite having a couple classes in college with one of the main characters, having the soundtrack, and generally loving any of the trailers - I’ve still yet to see the thing. When are you guys gonna get some NYC screening dates? Gah.
Anyway, the soundtrack is 2 discs of solid fantastic.
RIYL: Brian Eno, Shoegaze-ish stuff, zombies (flesh-eating, not the “Time of the Season” variety), etc.

“Know Your Weak Points!” by Olly Moss (click for a larger version). This poster design, which serves as a cheat sheet for video game bosses, classic monsters, Greek figures, and Karate Kids, goes on sale tomorrow with the release of A Life Well Wasted’s fifth podcast episode.

Two points.
1. I’m glad the next A Life Well Wasted is coming out. As someone who follows few (ie: like… 3?) podcasts, it’s a good one. Great production, interesting topics, and manages to simultaneously cover some major nerd material that somehow makes it seem normal.
2. That poster is great.
Wins the award for “Best Blog Dedicated to a NYC Train Line I’ve Found Today.”

There’s a time in everyone’s life where they have to stop and truly fight for something they believe in. This is one of those times.
